101.1g = 0.1011kg,
V = 10^-6m^3/cm^3 * 38.2cm^3 =
38.2*10^-6m^3.
Density = 0.1011kg / 38.2*10^-6m^3 =
2.6466*10^-3 * 10^6 = 2647kg/m^3.
Error = 2700 - 2647 = 53kg/m^3.
%Error = (53/2700) * 100% = 1.96.
ans. = a.
V = 10^-6m^3/cm^3 * 38.2cm^3 =
38.2*10^-6m^3.
Density = 0.1011kg / 38.2*10^-6m^3 =
2.6466*10^-3 * 10^6 = 2647kg/m^3.
Error = 2700 - 2647 = 53kg/m^3.
%Error = (53/2700) * 100% = 1.96.
ans. = a.
